yes, i received IU on my first attempt. i was fortunate because the entire process took 4 months. that was due to a comment a shrink wrote in my depression claim. she said my depression/anxiety caused me to basically be unsociable (as best as i can remember) and i couldn't even work in a sedentary job. when the va awarded me 30 percent for depression, they deferred IU until i could have my c&p exams. hence, the reason it was ajudicated so quickly. good luck with your claim.
